A little tweet tells me...
« on: November 19, 2012, 08:21:58 PM »
The WNW's Fok.DVII will be released tomorrow - Tuesday the 20th of November in other words  ;)

Comes from a reliable source and one that will remain secret.
Get those credit cards ready boys!   ;D ;D

Thanks for the tip, Von Buckle.  Of course, I've been checking the site 5 times a day already.  ;D  I was predicting today or tomorrow.  I am ready!  Wonder if there will be anything else with it?  Not that I'm greedy . . .

Regards,

Bob

Oh crap - I've bought a Gotha & a DH.2 in the last month, I can't possibly buy a bloody Fokker as well.

I am still admirably avoiding purchasing the Triplane....

I ordered the Tripe last Friday......still no notice of shipping but I suspect the Folks at WNW are swamped. I'm holding off a few more days on the Christmas Wishlist with my good Spouse hoping the DVII hits the front page. (not that I don't have lots of kits in the que)
Cheers,
Lance ::)

I must be the only guy out here that isn't waiting for the D.VII. I'll only buy one if Rowan decides to include some captured Canadian markings on his sheet that is sure to follow the release of the kit. The Canadian markings are very small in number and if we're really lucky he can find room to squeeze them in.

Cheers,

Chris

I am not that bothered about the DVII - I wold much rather have the EIII but am waiting to see what Christmas brings.  The tripe release was unexpected, so I treated myself.

I have the DVII in 1:48 from Eduard, the Hungarian version.

Given that WNW's security is better than the CIA, I was doubtful of the "I've got a secret" post quoting an unnamed but "reliable source" that must stay secret saying the D.VII would be released today.

These kinds of speculative posts based on anonymous sources are not helpful.

It's 7.26pm on the 20th in New Zealand - they usually update their site about 6.00pm, so looks like it isn't going to happen today. Oh we'll.
Oh but they did add another image to the page for the D.VII though to tease us with the cowling removed... They just know how to bait us well I guess  :P ;D

I bet the sites getting mega hits today.

Looks like the only update coming out of NZ today.  :-[
I will keep my mouth firmly closed in future.

That's a tad harsh - I find them great fun and just another excuse to visit the WNW homepage!

Anticipation is great.
